Gateway Motel is dedicated to continually develop new ideas
and strategies that will help to preserve our natural environment.
As a business we have taken the incentive to incorporate eco-friendly
practices throughout the motel whenever possible and are continuously
striving for more eco-friendly options.
Our
steps to becoming Eco-Friendly

Using only phosphate free laundry detergent.

bed linens outside to dry naturally.

environmentally friendly cleaners.
- Installing
shower savers, toilet tank savers and low voltage lightbulbs.
- Timed
water usage in flower beds; early morning or late at night.
-
Using organic fertilizers and native plant species in landscaping.
- Renovating
building to become more energy efficient.
-
Recycling, Reducing, Reusing, and Repairing throughout the
motel.
